Pizza dough for the impatient...

I crave pizza, on a daily basis. Thin crust from the oven, a little charred from the pizza stone... Slices of mozzarella... pesto... deliciousness. Peter Reinhart's recipe is great, but it takes 2 days, as psychology has enlightened me, the effort (Time to wait, cleaning dishes) required is too much for me to handle, so instead of making myself wait, I just deprive myself. I couldn't take it anymore so I found a quick recipe.
Well we shall see, new recipe from here


  • 1 cup of warm water
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of yeast
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
  • 1/4 of apple cider vinegar
  • About 4 cups of flower
